Purpose This paper aims to achieve rapid design and manufacturing of personalized total knee femoral component. Design/methodology/approach On the basis of a patient’s bone model, a matching personalized knee femoral component was rapidly designed with the help of computer-aided design method, then manufactured directly and rapidly by selective laser melting (SLM). Considered SLM as manufacturing technology, CoCrMo-alloyed powder that meets ASTM F75 standard is made of femoral component under optimal processing parameters. The feasibility of SLM forming through conducting experimental test of mechanical properties, surface roughness, biological corrosion resistance was analyzed. Findings The result showed that the tensile strength, yield strength, hardness and biological corrosion resistance of CoCrMo-alloyed personalized femoral component fulfill knee joint prosthesis standard through post-processing. Originality/value Traditional standardized prosthesis implantation manufacturing approach was changed by computer-aided design and personalized SLM direct manufacturing, and provided a new way for personalized implanted prosthesis to response manufacturing rapidly.

Tecnologias de Prototipagem Rápida (Rapid Prototyping, RP) permitem a fabricação automática de peças com geometria complicada a partir de dados de Projeto Auxiliado por Computador (Computer Aided Design, CAD). A peça tridimensional é construída por consolidação de pó em camadas (processo "aditivo" ou "generativo"). Por isso, estas técnicas estão freqüentemente chamadas de fabricação de forma livre sólida ou fabricação em camadas. Em geral, uma abordagem de 5 etapas do desenvolvimento de produto é comumente aplicada: criação de um modelo de CAD, conversão do modelo de CAD em formato STL, fatiamento do arquivo STL em camadas de seção transversal, fabricação do produto, e finalmente acabamento superficial do produto. Técnicas de RP têm muitos benefícios sobre métodos tradicionais para geração de modelos, ferramentaria e construção de peças de produção de qualidade. Por exemplo, em contraste com processos "subtrativos" (furação, moagem, desbaste) os métodos "aditivos" de RP permitem a fabricação de produtos com estrutura complexa de poros internos que não podem ser fabricados por outros métodos. Técnicas de RP podem diminuir significativamente o tempo de fabricação de pilhas a combustível de óxido sólido (PaCOS) com pequena despesa de operação e reduzido custo de produto quando aplicadas corretamente. Tecnologias como Sinterização Seletiva a Laser (Selective Laser Sintering, SLS), Manufatura de Objetos Laminados (Laminated Object Manufacturing, LOM) e Impressão 3D (3D Printing, 3DP) podem ser usadas para fabricação de protótipos de pilhas a combustível, em particular na configuração planar.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to improve the manufacturing of a prosthetic acetabular shell by analyzing the main factors leading to failure during the selective laser melting (SLM) additive manufacturing (AM) process. Design/methodology/approach Different computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing processes have been applied to fabricate acetabular parts. Then, various investigations into surface quality, mechanical properties and microstructure have been carried out to scrutinize the possible limitations in fabrication. Findings Geometrical measurements showed 1.59 and 0.27 per cent differences between the designed and manufactured prototypes for inside and outside diameter, respectively. However, resulting studies showed that unstable surfaces, cracks, an interruption in powder delivery and low surface quality were the main problems that occurred during this process. These results indicate that SLM is an accurate and promising method for production of intricate shapes, provided that the appropriate settings of production conditions are considered to minimize possible limitations. Originality/value The contributions of this paper are discussions covering different issues in the AM fabrication of acetabular shells to improve the mechanical properties, quality and durability of the produced parts.

Selective laser melting (SLM) is an additive manufacturing technique. It allows elements with very complex geometry to be produced using metallic powders. A geometry of manufacturing elements is based only on 3D computer-aided design (CAD) data. The metal powder is melted selectively layer by layer using an ytterbium laser. This paper contains the results of porosity and microhardness analysis made on specimens manufactured during a specially prepared process. Final analysis helped to discover connections between changing hatching distance, exposure speed and porosity. There were no significant differences in microhardness and porosity measurement results in the planes perpendicular and parallel to the machine building platform surface.
